Product Description
Yomega Power Brain XP
The Yomega Power Brain XP TM is two high performance yo-yos in one! Designed for both beginner and intermediate play, this yo-yo uses a “Smart Switch” to enable the player to choose between automatic and manual function with the flick of a switch. Beginners can easily get a sense of accomplishment while they learn how to handle the yo-yo in the automatic return mode. As their skills increase, they can switch to manual mode for longer, faster spin times and tricks that are more challenging.
From the Manufacturer
XP stands for extended play! The Power Brain XP yoyo is designed for both beginner and intermediate styles of play. This yoyo features a smart switch, which enables players to change between automatic and manual returns with the flick of a switch. The XP features a clear window cap on one side that enables players to see the gears and Yomega’s iconic X logo on the other side, which was first made famous when they launched The Yomega X-Brain in the late 1990’s. The Power Brain XP yoyo is great for beginner and intermediate players alike. In the auto return mode, this yoyo will return to the hand automatically. Once players have mastered the basic trick of making the yoyo sleep (spin) at the end of the string, players can flip a switch on the side of yoyo to change to a manual return. This provides total control so that players can master more advanced tricks.

I must also give a shout out to Harry Baier's book "Yo-Yo World Tricks Book " It peaked my interest as well. It's a delightful book about the subject with cute illustrations. I really think I've found a new hobby! This is unbelievable as I love living in this age of computers and technology, but there is something about the yo yo that keeps it exciting! And technology has revived this toy as it makes it easier to learn how to play with it.
Well, I had my first 'incident' with this Yoyo. I gave it a throw into a long sleep and it made a crunching noise. Rather than examine the yoyo when it returned, I threw it again. It spun, unscrrewed itself, and one half of the yoyo went off across the floor. I found the pieces, and it looked like one was missing, but that was not the case. I put it back together, and it still works just fine. Still agood yoyo, and an example of what happens when engineering meets fun. Take care when it makes a weird sound! Don't blame the yoyo if it's telling you somethings wrong!
And it worked first time, just out of the box.
I ordered the red one but got the green one, they say it could be any color, but that was no problem. I didn't buy it for the color but for ease of learning to play yoyo. And I most certainly got my money's worth.
One caution for those buying their first automatic yoyo: the instructions are really tough to follow, so plan on doing some internet research for instructions or tracking down demos on youtube. If you rely on the instructions in the package, you'll be disappointed in the yoyo!
